s the days get longer and flowers begin to bloom again, we are greeted with the familiar sweet smells and sounds of spring, signaling nature’s reawakening from the doldrums of winter. As vibrancy returns, we are reminded of the power of natural light and color to shift our emotions and lift our souls.
Much like the renewed energy that comes with the changing seasons, the beautiful things and vibrant colors that we choose to surround ourselves with at home can inspire the same sense of serenity and joy all year long. We may not be able to control the world around us, but we can certainly create spaces that envelop us in comfort.
Last month, New Orleans Auction Galleries and the French Heritage Society hosted world-renowned interior designer Timothy Corrigan at our gallery for a lively talk and book signing. His third book, At Home in France , showcases Timothy’s Paris apartment and his current home, Château de la Chevallerie, among other past projects.
The psychology of color – how, where and why it’s used – is something Timothy considers in all of his projects. One of his favorite spaces, the château’s “Yellow Salon”– inspired by Nancy Lancaster’s iconic butter yellow drawing room at her London home – is subdued yet powerful, exuding warmth and positivity. It should come as no surprise that from Southern Living to Vogue , many have noted that yellow – a color known for its ability to energize and evoke optimism – is making a big comeback in 2025.
Our March 29-30 Estates Auction is a spring symphony bursting with beauty and color. Whether you are decorating a grand château or a quiet cottage, this sale offers elegant furniture, cheerful paintings, colorful porcelain and much more to delight your spaces. Fittingly, we selected a charming historic property nestled in New Orleans’s Bywater neighborhood as the location for this sale’s photoshoot. Designed by Logan Killen Interiors, in partnership with Dear Valentine, the home’s carefully curated color palette is soothing and uplifting, creating an ethereal backdrop for this auction.
We are pleased to feature furniture, fine art and decorative objects from The Estate of Martha Turner & Glenn Bauguss, a collection that is best described as elegant and uplifting. The sale also features items from The Estate of Loveta Byrne, including a collection of portraits, American and English furniture and silver. We are also pleased to present The Honorable John B. Craig Collection of Baltimore Silver. In addition to amassing an impressive silver collection over the years, his business and diplomatic accomplishments include serving as U.S. Ambassador to the Sultanate of Oman from 1998 to 2001. ( Read more about our featured estates and collections in the pages that follow ).

Simplicity is beauty, and few techniques reflect that sentiment as well as decalcomania.
Written by / John C. Jones Photography / Jason Kruppa
Decalcomania (or Potichomania, as it’s often used interchangeably) refers to the process of decorating pottery and glass with carefully trimmed and pasted paper transfer designs overlaid with layers of varnish and paint.
Popular both for the accessibility of materials and the skill level required to produce it, Decalcomania originated in Paris and became widespread in the mid 1800s. Victorians viewed the style not just as a decorative trend but also as a viable pastime for creative enrichment.
Popular decalcomania forms include vases, plates, ginger jars, rolling pins and blown glass “witch balls” or “gazing balls,” with motifs commonly in the Chinoiserie taste, reflecting Europe’s increasingly preferred choice for such décor – a vague amalgam of Chinese, Japanese and Indian-inspired designs. Modern-day interest in decalcomania shows an enduring appreciation for one-of-a-kind hand-made pieces that in addition to beauty offer insight into the past.
New Orleans Auction Galleries is pleased to offer fine examples of decalcomania and its color palettes, unusual forms and interesting patterns.
It is an outdated notion to see non-Western decorative arts as “exotic.” They are, after all, reflections of the culture that produced them, their designs deeply rooted in the traditions, spirituality and mythos of the artisans who created them. Even so, Chinese Export Silver is still marvelous to our eyes, richly ornamented with coiled dragons, bamboo thickets and scenes of everyday life with persons in attire and attitude so unlike our own.
Written by / Charles C. Cage
Yet beneath the alluring ornament and beyond the colonialist notion of exoticism, we find surprisingly familiar industry in the Chinese silver trade. Even the designation “Chinese Export Silver” has been proven by modern scholarship to be inaccurate and outdated. While some pieces, particularly those from the early days of the China Trade, mimicked Western forms and decoration and were made exclusively for export, the majority were actually made for the domestic market.
Silver’s prestige in China, where payments for goods and merchants during the early China Trade period (1785-1840) were made in silver, was even greater than it was in the West. Whereas the American tradition was to minimize the amount of silver used for an item, even the most modest Chinese-made pieces are substantial and hefty.
New research, most notably by Drs. Adrien von Ferscht and Chao Huang, reveals that the Latin characters distinctively struck on Chinese silver – long thought to be those of silversmiths – are most often those of retailers or merchants. Even then, these names are often fictitious and simplified to cater to English speakers.
The prominent Cutshing of Canton [see lot 195], for instance, is now known to have begun as a partnership between powerful Hong merchant Wu Binjian (17691843) and Boston sea captain John Perkins Cushing (1787-1862); the name "Cutshing" is likely a deliberate corruption of "Cushing." Leeching [see lot 193] was known since the 1860s to be a merchant house name (meaning “increasing profit!”), but the designation was lost in favor of the quaint illusion of a lone craftsman toiling away at his bench.
Late Qing Dynasty silver (the more accurate and increasingly preferred term for the silver made in the trade cities of China in the 19th and early 20th centuries) embraces a wide variety of traditional Chinese and Western forms, as well as a hybrid of both in some instances, and we now know that their manufacturing and commerce was often a cooperation of the two cultures as well.
New Orleans Auction Galleries is pleased to present a small but significant selection of fine Chinese silver, the appeal of its luxurious design only enhanced by a greater appreciation and understanding of their origin.
Asmall-town girl with boundless energy, a love for music and a steadfast devotion to God, Mary Martha Fuller once daydreamed about a future that involved dressing up to go to work, while fashionably outfitting her paper dolls. In Hemphill, East Texas (population: 972), achieving this dream could have seemed nearly impossible, yet it was precisely this upbringing that would profoundly impact Martha’s life and set her remarkable trajectory.
Written by / Valeria L. Palmertree
artha’s family’s dry goods and feed store provided her with early lessons in salesmanship and sparked her desire to be a working woman, while her love for music led her to pursue a college education at the University of North Texas. In 1962, Martha earned a degree in music and elementary education. While in school, Martha met her first husband on a blind date and shortly thereafter relocated to Austin, where he was attending law school. Austin would soon powercharge Martha Turner’s potential and cement her as a timeless Texas legend.
Not one to shy away from hard work, Martha took on a part-time sales job at Austin’s Montgomery Ward, while teaching full-time. Unsurprising to anyone who knew her, Martha sold more lingerie as a parttime employee than her full-time colleagues. With uncanny confidence and unbridled business acumen, Martha partnered with one of her fellow educators to start a wig store – the first of many successful entrepreneurial endeavors.
While teaching, Martha also discovered an innate penchant and passion for real estate. Over several years, she would go on to remodel, build and sell several homes. Becoming a real estate maven, however, is not something Martha could’ve imagined, but before long, she would go on to claim that distinction – and then some.
Martha retired from teaching in 1978, following a 15-year career that included stints at Spring Branch and at River Oaks Baptist in Houston, where she relocated in 1966. Houston would not only become Martha’s forever home but also be a key player in her professional and personal lives. It was the Houston community within which Martha thrived and to which she notably and generously gave back.
An adamant believer in paying it forward, Martha devoted her talent and time to various civic, philanthropic and professional leadership roles. More than a businesswoman, Martha’s family and friends remember her as an agent of change within the Houston community: inspiring, encouraging and generous. She was an ardent supporter of health care, women’s organizations, the arts and education.
“
To be successful, you have to love what you do, love the people around you, make everyone feel special, and realize that you are the only person in charge of your life.”
Martha earned her real estate license from the University of Houston in 1979 and quickly went on to become a top producer at a local firm. In 1981, she tenaciously founded Turner-Owens Real Estate with her friend, Nancy Owens. The rest, as they say, is Houston real estate history!
After being recognized by the State of Texas as “Houston’s Most Inspiring Businesswoman,” Martha was inducted into the Texas Business Hall of Fame in 2009, one of only seven women to have received this honor.
Ushering in a new era of unprecedented success, Turner Owens Real Estate became Martha Turner Properties in 1986. Joining hands with Glenn Bauguss, her husband of 33 years, and treasured business partner, Tom Anderson, they created a luxury brand real estate firm second to none.
Martha Turner Properties would go on to become one of Houston’s largest and most profitable brokers, with more than 200 sales associates across six offices in the Greater Houston area. In 2014, Martha Turner Properties had its best year ever in the company’s 32-year history, surpassing more than $2.3 billion in annual sales and ranking among the country’s top 10 firms.
In 2014, Martha Turner Properties sold to Sotheby’s International Realty of New York, with Martha notably telling a reporter, “We are the jewel in their crown!” Today, the firm continues to bear her name as Martha Turner Sotheby’s International Realty.
The small-town girl who once daydreamed of dressing up to go to work fulfilled that vision in more ways than one. Well-known for her uncompromising flare for fashion, Martha had a penchant for oversized brooches and rings, as well as statement necklaces and bracelets.
Dressing professionally was a tenet of Martha’s business philosophy. She understood the role that image and style played in forging credibility and success, and she communicated that sentiment to her sales agents. Her team knew to be “Martha Ready!”
Martha’s style was as formidable as her brand’s visibility. A big believer in advertising, Martha Turner Properties’ presence across yard signs, television and print and digital media was bold and ubiquitous, earning her the Lifetime Achievement Award for Women Who Mean Business by the Houston Business Journal and the Trailblazer Award from Houston’s chapter of the American Advertising Federation.
“
If you find a great shoe, buy it in every color!”
– Martha Turner Bauguss
A compass from childhood, faith was central to Martha's life, with family and friends rounding out her north star. Generous with her time and affection, those closest to Martha describe her as a light, a treasure. Her ever-positive spirit guided each step of her every day walk of life.
Possessing an extraordinary business acumen, one of Martha's gifts was her unintimidating approach, putting everyone around her at ease. Her friends and family saw her as fun-loving, with a loyalty that knew no bounds. Her personal time was often marked by her “hobby” of exploring the latest fashion and makeup tips alongside her best friend of more than 40 years, Sharon Witt. This exploration embraced her creativity, which harkened back to childhood days.
Everyone who was fortunate to have known Martha would wholeheartedly agree that she possessed a heart of gold.
I met Martha many years ago, and I’m not sure I’ve ever known anyone with a more loving, giving heart. Through the years I asked her to support innumerable charities; the answer was always affirmative! Equally as important, I know that Martha helped so many people in need without anyone’s knowledge. She was the ultimate expression of God’s love here on earth.”
– Warner Roberts, Friend of Martha Turner Bauguss
New Orleans Auction is honored to present The Estate of Martha Turner Bauguss, including selections from her beloved Houston apartment. Her collection features antique furniture, impressionist and modern paintings, as well as custom Scalamandre upholstered furniture, silver and Chinese porcelain.
From her family’s old wood bureau to an historic home filled with a lifetime collection, Loveta Byrne spent her 92 years on earth surrounded by antiques. As a tiny newborn, she slept tucked within a dresser drawer her parents had outfitted as a crib – an experience, her children speculate, that may have sparked her ardent love of antiques.
Loveta was born in Mississippi’s rural Franklin County to a hardworking, poor family; her mother picked cotton and became a hairdresser, and her father served in the Army Corps of Engineers. It’s this upbringing that fed her drive and determination. From a young age, Loveta demonstrated a relentless entrepreneurial spirit, a keen eye for beautiful things and a defining passion for hospitality. These would become key chapters of her remarkable life.
Written by / Valeria L. Palmertree Still Life Photography / Christa Ougel
In the early 1950s, Loveta moved to Natchez, Mississippi for a professional opportunity, but this relocation would change the course of her life forever. Not only would Natchez’s colorful, close-knit and culture-drenched community inspire her, but so, too, would Natchez embrace her as one of its most beloved champions. Over eight decades, Loveta built an impressive career as a Natchez businesswoman, with multiple shops, restaurants and bed and breakfasts to her name.
Loveta was steadfast in promoting Natchez as a place to live and visit, serving as an unofficial ambassador both in town and across the country. She traveled to Hollywood to promote Natchez’s picture-perfect offerings and lovingly welcomed new residents as a member of the newcomers’ committee. She believed Natchez’s history, culture, food, year-round entertainment and antiques scene were second to none.
In the 1970s, Loveta opened the El Farol Spanish Shop in downtown Natchez and would go on to also establish the Serendipity Gift Shop, the Pompous Palate and the Sidetrack. In the 1990s, she received recognition from the Mississippi Restaurant Association for her accomplishments in the restaurant industry. In addition to business ownership, Loveta dedicated herself to numerous civic, church and social affiliations.
In Natchez, Loveta also built a strong network of dear friends, colleagues and neighbors, who admired her tenacity, generosity and meaningful contributions to their community. Upon her passing, The Natchez Democrat remembered Loveta as “a force in Natchez society and business during the modern heyday of the city.”
That Loveta found her footing as a revered figure in Natchez’s food and hospitality industry would surprise no one who knew her. For Loveta, hospitality was both a gift and a love language. Both personally and professionally, it was a means of connection.
From a young age, Loveta possessed a deep love for cooking; she would go on to read hundreds of cooking books in her lifetime. From the kitchen to the front door, Loveta was a constant presence at her restaurants, setting and delivering her vision for the guest experience: service always at the forefront. To her employees, she was a mentor, a force to be reckoned with – always learning, improving and deeply caring about what she did and for whom.
Hospitality was Loveta’s way of expressing how much she cared for and generously took care of people, particularly those who others may see as underdogs. Her children recall open houses held on Christmas Day, when Loveta would welcome dozens of guests to the family’s home for a celebratory day-long feast. Among her cherished traditions and festivities were Mardi Gras and Natchez Pilgrimage Tours.
Loveta thrived when sharing a homemade meal or creating a gathering for those she loved. Her family estimates that she owned thousands of cookbooks during her lifetime. Excited to share a new favorite recipe, she’d write her notes on an envelope and call up her children to share proper instructions.
When she passed away, our family joked that we should make her tombstone in the shape of an envelope because envelopes were where she would most often jot down her recipes. She loved cooking and entertaining. It’s why we’ve found what seems like a gazillion sets of China, silver…”
–Kristie Chandler, Loveta’s Daughter
Loveta’s gracious hospitality was especially evident across the several bed and breakfasts she owned and operated during her illustrious business career as well as in the homes she decorated.
In the mid 1970s, over the course of three years, Loveta lovingly restored the historic Glenburnie mansion (est. 1833), fittingly filling it with beautiful pieces from the period. When she later acquired The Burn, she poured her heart into designing and outfitting each of the rooms at the bed and breakfast and catered more than 300 events per year. During her short time in Vicksburg, Mississippi, Loveta also operated the Anchuca Historic Mansion & Inn after living in and decorating several homes in the Garden District of New Orleans.
Always searching for a home that would fit her collection of furnishings, Loveta took on several renovation projects that further cemented her commitment to collecting.
gone,
Mama would tell me that you could always buy new stuff, but when these old windows, doors, furniture, etc. were
they were gone forever. It was important to her to not let that happen.”
n Natchez, Loveta’s love of antiques grew exponentially. Inspired by the city’s rich history, distinctive architecture and local antique dealers, she sharpened her knowledge and expanded her taste for beautiful, unique items steeped in stories.
Her knowledge and understanding of antiques came primarily from books, hundreds of them in fact, all still beautifully organized in her treasured bookcases. Inquisitive and genuine in her search for the next interesting item, Loveta amassed an eclectic collection – a reflection of her.
She truly enjoyed what she collected. She bought what she found interesting or beautiful, and she never stopped collecting, even into her
90s.”
–Kristie Chandler
Loveta was particularly drawn to the stories behind the antiques she collected. She would impress family members, friends and bed-andbreakfast guests alike with her knowledge of the items’ provenance or about who had restored them and when. She displayed and used all of her antiques with great care and, most importantly, joy.
She loved antiques, but it was the stories she heard or even imagined about those antiques that drew her in. She used antiques to create different worlds. Knowing people’s stories was especially important to her, and she extended the life of those stories by sharing her pieces with a variety of people, both at home and at her B&Bs.”
Loveta passed away in Natchez last year at the age of 92. Until her last days, she remained an avid Bridge and Mahjong player, meeting up often with her cherished friends. She most enjoyed the company of her three children, six grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
New Orleans Auction is honored to present The Estate of Loveta Byrne, which includes a large collection of American and Continental furniture from Georgian to Victorian periods, Old Paris and other fine porcelains, as well as an even larger selection of silver.
Lots 95-127
head of each auction, the New Orleans Auction Creative team extensively searches for the backdrop against which to bring our catalogue to life. This month, the exploration led us downriver from the French Quarter to the enchanting Bywater neighborhood. Thoughtfully designed, Chartres 1883 pens a love letter to New Orleans history. The intimate hideaway – a collaboration among Dear Valentine, Inhab Group and Logan Killen Interiors – sets the mood for this early spring season: drenched in sunlight, sweetness and stories.
Rich in charm and character, Chartres 1883 spans three picturesque parcels of land at the corner of Chartres and Montegut Streets and consists of two impeccably restored historic buildings from the late 1800s. Together, the Main House and the Carriage House offer accommodations for up to 12 guests, as well as a lush courtyard known as “The Garden at Chartres,” which can be used for intimate gatherings, outdoor yoga sessions and other special events.
Written by / Valeria L. Palmertree
Both the three-story Main House, originally a late 19th-century feed store, and the Carriage House have been lovingly and painstakingly restored. Together they stand proudly as a testament to the history of its surroundings.
The Bywater neighborhood blends a melange of pastelcolored Creole cottages, stately Greek Revival mansions and elegant Victorian townhouses – a melting pot of architectural influences that echoes the soul and the stories of a city steeped in history, culture, music and joy.
To honor the property’s surroundings, rich history and New Orleans influences, Logan Killen Interiors incorporated utility elements and an exuberant, yet deeply considered, color palette paired with a Southern European aesthetic. The result is a warm, inviting experience, where simplicity reigns supreme and natural materials take center stage. Drawing inspiration from French Colonial style, Chartres 1883 boasts a captivating blend of utilitarian charm, industrial heritage and timeless character.

Flooded by natural light and serene views of the lush courtyard and sparkling pool below, this tranquil hideaway helped bring to life a small preview of the hundreds of lots that make up the March Estates Auction.
Chartres 1883’s evocative storytelling served as an idyllic pairing for this sale, and we hope you, too, will find yourself inspired and beckoned to escape – if only for a moment – to search for beauty and joy in the everyday.

Andre Hambourg had a long and active career painting luminous seascapes and evocative beach scenes. Born in Paris, Hambourg spent his early years studying under several talented artists, including Paul Niclausse and Lucien Simon, before living and working in northern Africa for nearly ten years. The powerful sunlight and diversity of the landscape inspired Hambourg, and he began producing dozens of works that were exhibited in Algeria and Paris, including the Algerian Pavilion at the Exposition Internationale of Paris, which earned him the Laureate of the Exposition title. This catapulted him into the spotlight, and his work was received warmly by critics and collectors alike.
Hambourg soon reached international prominence, exhibiting globally but especially in the United States, where his sundappled beach scenes were much beloved. He also wrote and illustrated several well-known books, like Rudyard Kipling’s The Return of Imray and Albert Camus’ Posthumous Works, adding more achievements to his prolific career. But it was these depictions of the sea and beaches that were often hailed as his greatest work, especially those inspired by Trouville and Deauville ñ the lively color palette demonstrated his masterful command of color theory, ushering in the dominance of color theory in post-war fine art. Today, many of his works can be found in private and public collections worldwide, including the Musée National d’Art Moderne in Paris.

“I feel the space in Texas...it frees me. It connects me with the sky. It connects me with the earth.”
- Dorothy Hood
A native of Houston, Dorothy Hood received a traditional academic art education; she attended the Rhode Island School of Design and, briefly, the Art Students League in New York. Even as a young student, she knew her technique and approach were antithetical to the traditional training her instructors were espousing.
After a spontaneous trip to Mexico exposed her to the works of such artists as Rufino Tamayo, Diego Rivera, Frida Kahlo, Remedio Varo, and Leonora Carrington - all of whom befriended the talented young American – she began to toy with the tenets of abstraction, expressionism, and color field. Hood was to spend two decades in Mexico, honing her skills and exploring a variety of styles and techniques, before returning to Texas. It was in her home state that she began to receive considerable attention and acclaim. The compositions she created upon her return, with her distinctive, often amorphous, swaths of bold color, are subtle and sophisticated explorations of form, texture, tone and the interplay of light and shadow. While the works themselves may inspire a range of emotions in the viewer, the artist's pleasure in the act of creation is often palpable.

Eugene Chigot had many mentors throughout his lifetime, including his father, Alphonse Chigot, and Alexandre Cabanel at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, who influenced his career. However, he would go on to buck the traditionalism that he had been taught by cultivating his own, unique style, as well as become an active participant in the artist community of turn-of-the-century France. Whilst Chigot is not regarded as a radical artist, his work did flirt with Modernism and postImpressionism, reflecting the restlessness of the Belle Epoque, and he did encourage the changing tides of fine art in Paris.
These preoccupations would also lead Chigot to actively participate in the founding of the Salon d’Automne in 1903, an annual art exhibition in Paris that is still popular today. The new exhibition showcased the developments of early 20th century art and received strong support from artists across France. Paul Cezanne and Auguste Rodin participated in the inaugural exhibition, and Chigot would submit his own work in 1905, the same year that Fauvism was introduced. The Salon d’Automne was a reaction to the conservative principles of the Paris Salon, the dominant exhibition at the time, and encouraged more radical artists to come forward, forever changing the course of art history.
In these ways, Chigot left an indelible mark on the art history canon. By resisting traditionalism and integrating Modernism into his practice, as well as supporting other artists to do the same, Chigot proved to be more than an academic painter. His work is still widely celebrated, and can be found throughout the permanent and private collections of France, including the Musee d’Orsay.

The pattern of this mirror can be seen on mirrors in the collections of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York and the Victorian and Albert Museum, London. The side edges are carved with overlapping leaves, a detail frequently seen in French work, not surprising since their father, Jean Pelletier trained in Paris. It is suggested he fled France after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes, first going to Amsterdam and then on to London, where he established a business in Covent Garden, supplying gilt pier tables, mirrors, candle stands and picture frames to William II and the Queen and to the Duke of Montagu. The firm was named “Master of the Wardrobe” to William III for his London House and Boughton House. After Jean died in 1704, his two sons took over the business and ran it until 1712, after which they stopped carving.

Benjamin Franklin Washington (1820-1872) was the greatgreat-nephew of George Washington, a descendant of the patriot’s brother Samuel. Born in Berry Hill in Jefferson County Virginia (now West Virginia), he studied law and assumed the family estates at the early age of 21, but was lured to the Pacific Coast by the Gold Rush, leading a contingent of young men from the Shenandoah Valley to California. He met with no success, but remained in Sacramento, working in the post office and elected Recorder in 1850. He purchased and operated the Times and Transcript newspaper for a few years before being appointed by James Buchanan as Collector of the Port of San Francisco in 1857. He purchased a ranch and returned to the practice of law in 1863, and in 1865 became editor of the San Franciso Examiner, from which he retired shortly before his death.

The USS Louisiana, the second Connecticut-class battleship of the United States Navy, was authorized on July 1, 1902, and laid down on February 7, 1903, at the Newport News, Virginia, Shipbuilding Company. The ship was launched on August 27, 1904, christened by Miss Marie Juanita de Lallande de Ferriere (1875-1955), a New Orleans debutante and former queen of Proteus.
Alongside announcements of the ship's launch were the first appeals for funds to supply the ship with a silver service from the state as had become the custom with the ships of the "New Navy". The campaign was led through the New Orleans Times-Democrat newspaper and Andrew R. Blakely, proprietor of the St. Charles Hotel. The drive raised $429.25 through September but then lagged until May 1905 when the Times-Democrat began a series of articles about the lackluster response, chiding Louisianians with the success of Mississippi's similar drive for the USS Mississippi. By June of 1906, the fundraising committee - now under the auspices of the Progressive Union and chaired by Mayor Martin Behrmanhad raised $3671 (of the projected $10,000 needed).
The design for the service was approved on July 4, 1906. New Orleans silver firms A.B. Griswold & Co. and T. Hausmann & Sons among others submitted entries, but the design chosen was that of Slovakian immigrant Coleman E. Adler (1868-1938) who had opened a jewelry concern on Canal Street in 1898 (and which still exists today). The set he designed comprised a large punch bowl on stand, a small tray, a large plateau, two cake baskets, two fruit baskets, two ladles and fifty-eight goblets: one for each parish except Orleans, which was represented by the punch bowl, decorated with a vignette of the Cabildo flanked by scenes of LaSalle's Claim and the Louisiana Purchase.
The goblets were described thus: "The seal of the state appears on each side of the goblet, while the corresponding space on the other side is used for the name of the parish. The principal feature in the treatment of the goblet is the magnolia . . . The blossom forms a socket for the cup and continues to the base, forming the stem of the goblet, with garlands of fruit festooning around the cups. The goblets are gold lined and weigh twenty ounces." (New Orleans Times-Democrat, July 5, 1906)
The Progressive Union formally contracted Adler on August 9, 1906, to supply the set by the following November. While never mentioned by name in the press, the "Boston" firm Adler contracted for the task was Frank W. Smith of Gardner, Massachusetts. The funding committee targeted the parishes and large cities to sponsor specific pieces: Baton Rouge the fruit baskets, Lake Charles the cake baskets, Shreveport the plateau, for instance, and each parish its own goblet. Mayor Behrman reported on August 12 that ten parishes (among them Avoyelles) had yet to contribute the requested $100 for their goblet.
Adler continued to update the press on the set's construction ("the set will be the only one in the navy made of .935 silver") and by October the punchbowl had arrived in New Orleans. (Adler demonstrated its enormous size by showing that his eight-year-old son Milton could hide in it completely.)
The complete set was unveiled in Adler's store on December 6, and the service formally presented to Captain Albert R. Couden of the USS Louisiana at the Port of New Orleans on December 15, 1906. Photographs of the set appeared in both the New Orleans TimesDemocrat and the Times-Democrat
The USS Louisiana was part of the Great White Fleet 1907-1909 and deployed thrice to protect American interests during the Mexican Revolution 1913-1915. The ship was then reduced to reserve status, serving as both training vessel and convoy escort during the First World War. The ship was decommissioned on October 20, 1920, and scrapped in November 1923.
The silver service of the USS Louisiana was Navy property and its disposition required Federal authority. US Senator Edwin S. Broussard of Louisiana oversaw the process, and by House Resolution 13404 the 70th US Congress, passed by the Senate January 7, 1929, the service was given to the Louisiana State Museum. The museum's accession records, however, state that the service was merely a loan, not a gift, and was returned to the US Navy decades ago. The disposition of the service is thereafter unknown. This single goblet offers the tantalizing hope that more of the set
may yet be discovered.

From Audubon’s journal, July 1, 1821:
“I found this bird about three miles from St. Francisville in Louisiana, whilst engaged in searching for a Turkey, which I had wounded. It was afternoon, and the heat oppressive. I saw it innocently approaching us until within a few yards, anxiously looking, as if trying to discover our intentions; but as we stood motionless, it once came so near that I could easily have reached it with my gun barrel. It moved nimbly among the twigs of the low bushes, making now and then short dashes at flies, which it swallowed after killing them under foot, as many other Fly Catchers are in the habit of doing, then peeping at us, and again setting off in pursuit of flies.”

Since her childhood, picking cotton was part of Clementine Hunter's life. When she became a mother, Clementine would place her children under a nearby tree and tend to them as she finished picking a row of cotton. According to Clementine:
"I just let my head wander. I always feel close to the Lord when Iím picking. Because to pick the cotton, you donít have to think of how to do it, you just do it. So, that leaves my whole head to think of the Lord. I can pray, sing, do just about anything I want while Iím picking, and nobody could stop me, except them children.”
Her depiction of a sole cotton picker could be seen as a self-portrait of the artist hard at work in the fields.

I saw that the camera could be a weapon against poverty, against racism, against all sorts of social wrongs. I knew at that point I had to have a camera.
--Gordon Parks
One of the most acclaimed American photojournalists of the 20th century, Parks was a staunch advocate for social justice and much of his work explores issues of poverty, racism, and civil rights. The youngest of 15 children of a Kansas farmer and his wife, Parks taught himself the rudiments of photography after purchasing a camera at a pawnshop. He worked as a freelance photographer, as well as working numerous odd jobs to support himself, until his series of photographs of Chicago's South Side received national attention. In 1942, in part because of these photos, Parks was awarded a fellowship from the prestigious Julius Rosenwald Foundation, an extraordinary honor for a self-taught photographer with no formal training. The fellowship afforded him the opportunity to relocate to Washington, D.C., for an apprenticeship at the Farm Security Administration (FSA), where he remained for several years, supplementing his income by taking fashion photos for such magazines as Vogue and Ebony. In 1948, he became the first, and was for many years, the only African American on staff at LIFE magazine. His work for the publication brought him to the attention of an even wider audience and gave him the opportunity to explore social justice issues.

These images exist in their own longing. My mindís eye found them waiting, Laden with the scent of mystery. Having stumbled upon their presence, I began looking for secrets. Soon, things were dissolving Into the kind of geography Where only imagination roams.
--Gordon Parks
The stunning -- and rare -- unframed nude offered here reveals Gordon Parks' continuous exploration of perspective, lighting, and form with the photograph serving as a sophisticated experiment of composition and technique. It was a part of a larger group of images -- 15 nudes and 35 abstracts -- intended for a traveling museum exhibition entitled “Images from the Soul”. A large coffee table book was also in the works before Parks' untimely and sudden death halted the project.

(b). Examination of property / Condition Reports. Prospective Buyers and Bidders are strongly advised to examine personally any property in which they are interested, before the Auction takes place. As a convenience, Bidders may request that NOAG produce a Condition Report (“Condition Report”) for a Lot, which, if produced, will provide additional detail concerning the condition of the Lot as observed by NOAG’s staff. NOAG reserves the right to decline to produce a Condition Report for any specific Lot, for any reason and in NOAG’s sole discretion.

Such statements do not constitute a representation, warranty or assumption of liability by NOAG of any kind. References in the Catalogue entry or the Condition Report to damage or restoration are for guidance only and should be evaluated by personal inspection by the Bidder or a knowledgeable representative. The absence of such a reference does not imply that an item is free from defects or restoration, nor does a reference to particular defects imply the absence of any others.
(ii) Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Seller, NOAG, or any of NOAG’s officers, employees or agents, are responsible for the correctness of any statement of whatever kind concerning any Lot, whether written or oral, nor for any other errors or omissions in description or for any faults or defects in any Lot.

(iii) NOAG did not and could not have known that condition, attribution, kind, quality, expressed value, or authorship is the cause or reason why you decide to purchase any Lot;
(iv) Your purchase of any Lot is not intended to gratify a nonpecuniary interest; and

(a). Registration before bidding / Bidding requirements. In order to be accepted as a Bidder and allowed to place a Bid, all Bidders must meet all of the following requirements:
(i) A Bidder must complete and sign the attached registration form and provide identification to NOAG;
(ii) NOAG may require the production of bank or other financial references or any other additional information;
(iii) When making a Bid, a Bidder is accepting personal liability to pay the Purchase Price in full in the event that the Bidder submits the Winning Bid, unless it has been explicitly agreed in writing with NOAG before the auction of the Lot that the Bidder is acting as agent on behalf of an identified third party acceptable to NOAG, and that NOAG will only look to that principal for payment
(iv) All Bids are to be made in U.S. currency unless agreed upon between NOAG and the Bidder; and
(v) At NOAG’s sole discretion, NOAG may require any Bidder to post a cash deposit in an amount set by NOAG at its sole discretion. Such deposit may include, without limitation, a deposit of 25% of the Maximum Bid (or another amount set in NOAG’s sole discretion) in the case of Absentee Bids (defined below).
(b). Refusal of admission / Rejection of Bidders. NOAG has the right, at its complete discretion, to refuse admission to the premises or participation in any Auction. NOAG reserves the right to reject any Bidder for any reason whatsoever and in NOAG’s sole discretion.
(c). Absentee bids / Telephone bids.
(i) As a convenience to Bidders, NOAG may allow a Bidder to submit an absentee bid (“Absentee Bid”) or telephone bid (“Telephone Bid”) by filling out (in full) the section of the attached registration form marked “Absentee Bids / Telephone Bids.” In order to submit an Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid for an Auction, that registration form must be filled out and submitted to NOAG no later than 5:00 p.m. central time on the last business day before the commencement of the Auction. (NOAG reserves the right to accept late Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid submissions in NOAG’s sole discretion.) All Absentee Bid submissions must include a maximum bid amount (“Maximum Bid”).
(ii) If an Absentee Bid is submitted and accepted, at the time of the auction of the affected Lot, the Auctioneer or other NOAG staff will place the Absentee Bid at the amount of the opening bid amount, and will increase the amount as necessary until the earlier of (x) the Absentee Bid is the Winning Bid; or (y) the amount reaches the Maximum Bid. All such actions in this paragraph are at the sole discretion of the Auctioneer and/ or NOAG. If NOAG receives Absentee Bids on a particular Lot with identical Maximum Bid amounts, and at the Auction these are the highest bids on the Lot, the Lot will be sold to the person whose Absentee Bid was received and accepted first. In the event of a tie bid between an Absentee Bid and a Bid submitted by a Bidder physically present at the Auction (or a Telephone Bid), the Lot will be sold to physically present Bidder (or bidder submitting the Telephone Bid).
(iii) If a Telephone Bid is submitted and accepted, at the time of the auction of the affected Lot, NOAG staff shall attempt to contact the Bidder using the telephone number provided. If successfully contacted, the Bidder shall then be afforded the opportunity to place a Bid on the Lot by telephone. Telephone Bids may be recorded. By submitting a Telephone Bid, the Bidder consents to the recording of the conversation and the placing of the Bid.
(iv) Execution of Absentee Bids and Telephone Bids is a free service undertaken subject to other commitments at the time of the Auction and neither NOAG nor the Auctioneer shall have any liability for failing to execute an Absentee Bid or Telephone Bid or for errors and omissions in connection therewith.
(d). Video or digital images. At some Auctions there may be a video or digital screen. Errors may occur in its operation and in the quality of the image and we do not accept liability for such errors. NOAG reserves the right to video tape and record proceedings at any Auctions. Any personal information obtained will be held in confidence by NOAG but may be used or shared with our affiliates and marketing partners for customer analysis purposes and to help us to tailor our services to buyer requirements. Any Bidder attending an Auction in person who does not wish to be video-taped may make arrangements to make a Telephone Bid in accordance with Section 3(c) above.
(e). Reserves. All Lots are offered subject to a reserve, which is the confidential minimum price below which the Lot will not be sold (the “Reserve”). The Reserve for a Lot will not exceed the low Estimate for that Lot. The Auctioneer may open the bidding on any Lot below the Reserve by placing a bid on behalf of the Seller. The Auctioneer may continue to bid on behalf of the Seller up to the amount of the Reserve, either by placing consecutive bids or by placing bids in response to other bidders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Lot may be sold at a Hammer Price below the Reserve, at the discretion of the Auctioneer and NOAG, in any manner consistent with the agreement between NOAG and the Seller.
(f). No bidding by Seller. Under no circumstances shall Seller (as agent or principal), whether by itself or through its representatives, employees or agents (except as through the Auctioneer as set forth in Section 3(e) above), enter or cause to be entered a Bid on Seller’s Lot.
(g). Auctioneer’s discretion. The Auctioneer has the right at his or her absolute and sole discretion to refuse any Bid, to advance the bidding in such a manner as he or she may decide, to withdraw or divide any Lot, to combine any two or more Lots, and in the event of any error or dispute, to determine the Winning Bid, to continue the bidding, to cancel the Sale or to reoffer and resell the Lot or item in dispute. If any dispute arises after the Sale, NOAG’s sale record is conclusive. Unless otherwise announced by the Auctioneer at the time of Sale, all Bids are per Lot as numbered in the Catalogue and no Lot shall be divided for Sale. NOAG and/or the Auctioneer may withdraw any Lot at any time before such Lot is offered at Auction, for any reason and in their sole and absolute discretion. (h). Successful bid and passing of risk. The Auctioneer shall have absolute discretion in determining the Winning Bid and the striking of the Auctioneer’s hammer marks the acceptance of the highest and best bid as the Winning Bid and the conclusion of a contract for sale between the Seller and the Buyer. Risk and responsibility for the Lot but not its title passes to the Buyer immediately upon announcement of the Winning Bid at the Auction. (i). Post-auction sale. In the event that there is no Winning Bid at Auction for a Lot, or the Lot is withdrawn from the Auction, or the Sale is cancelled for non-payment pursuant to Section 4(g) below, NOAG may sell the Lot at public or private sale at any time thereafter, in a manner consistent with the agreement between Seller and NOAG. (j). NOAG assumes no responsibility for failure to execute Bids for any reason whatsoever.
(a). In order to consummate and complete the Sale, the Buyer must tender payment in full of all of the following amounts (all such amounts together being the “Purchase Price”) to NOAG:
(i) the Hammer Price; and
(ii) the “Buyer’s Premium” consisting of a premium of 25% of the Hammer Price (discounted to 22% if the method of payment is by check, cash, or wire transfer [subject to a $30 fee for domestic wires and a $60 fee for international wires] by the end of the day on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction) up to and including a Hammer Price of $200,000 and 12% of the amount by which the Lot’s Hammer Price exceeds $200,000; and
(iii) Any applicable Louisiana, state, local, and federal or other taxes, calculated as required by law. Any documentation of tax exemption must be provided by the Bidder contemporaneously with the execution of the attached registration form.
(b). Payment and passing of title. The Buyer and any other Bidders are responsible for contacting NOAG for Auction results during the week after the conclusion of the Auction. Subject to the provisions of Section 4(i) below which may require earlier payment, the Buyer must pay the full Purchase Price no later than 4:30 pm central time on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction. Payments may be submitted during business hours to: New Orleans Auction Galleries, 333 St. Joseph Street, New Orleans, Louisiana 70130, Telephone number: 504-566-1849. Payments may be made by certified check, cash, wire transfer, or credit card (Visa, Mastercard, and American Express). Payments will be accepted by non-certified check only in NOAG’s sole discretion, from Buyers that have been qualified by NOAG in NOAG’s sole discretion. Title to the Lot does not pass to the Buyer until the full amount of the Purchase Price has been tendered and received by NOAG in good cleared funds, even in circumstances where the Lot has been released to the Buyer.
(c). Credit Cards. Your signature on this form constitutes permission to charge the full amount of the Purchase Price on your credit card, if you are the Buyer on a Lot and payment is not received within five business days of the close of the Auction. Your signature on this form also constitutes permission to charge the full amount of Storage Charges (defined below), if and when accrued, on a periodic basis on your credit card.
(d). Release of Lot to Buyer. No Lot will be released to the Buyer unless and until NOAG receives full payment of the Purchase Price, and such payment has cleared and NOAG has received confirmation of all funds owed. At its sole discretion, NOAG may release a specific Lot at any time, notwithstanding the foregoing provision. In addition, NOAG may require that Lots not be released until the Buyer has cleared additional checks in NOAG’s sole discretion, including without limitation, any anti-money laundering or antiterrorism financing checks to NOAG’s satisfaction. In the event that a Buyer fails to complete any anti-money laundering or anti-terrorism financing checks to NOAG’s satisfaction, NOAG shall be entitled to cancel the Sale and take any other action permitted or required under applicable law. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, Lots cannot be released until after the conclusion of the Auction.
(e). Export/Import license and Dealers. It is the Buyer’s sole responsibility to obtain any relevant export or import license. The denial of any license or any delay in obtaining licenses shall not justify the rescission of any sale nor any delay in making bill payment for the Lot; and shall not limit or alter any of the obligations of the Buyer herein. Dealers purchasing for resale must enter appropriate their Dealer Resale Number on the attached registration form and provide NOAG with proper documentation.
(f). Storage charge. Subject to the foregoing provisions, any Lot that is not picked up by the end of the day on the fifteenth calendar day following the conclusion of the Auction is subject to an additional storage charge of $5.00 per Lot per day (“Storage Charge”) for as long as the Lot is stored at NOAG’s facilities. The outstanding amount of this Storage Charge must be paid in full (in addition to the Purchase Price) before such Lot will be released to the Buyer. Such Storage Charge accrues on a daily basis and is billed monthly. All items handled or stored will be at the Buyer’s risk. NOAG is not liable for any damage to Lots after the conclusion of the Auction.
(g). Remedies for non-payment. If the Buyer fails to make payment in full of the Purchase Price in good cleared funds within the time required by Section 4(b) above, or payment in full of any applicable Storage Charge when incurred, NOAG shall be entitled in its absolute discretion to exercise one or more of the following rights or remedies (in addition to asserting any other rights or remedies available by law):
(i) to charge outstanding amounts to the Buyer’s credit card;
(ii) to charge interest at the rate of one and one-half percent (1.5%) per month (but not to exceed the highest amount chargeable under applicable law);
(iii) to hold the Buyer liable for the total amount due and to commence legal proceedings for its recovery together with interest, legal fees and costs to the fullest extent permitted under applicable law;
(iv) to exercise any other remedy or remedies available under the law, including but not limited to a second sale of said item in accordance with the provisions of applicable law, including the subsequent enforcement of any deficiency against the initial buyer;
(v) to cancel the sale;
(vi) to resell the property publicly or privately on such terms as we shall think fit;
(vii) to pay the Seller an amount up to the net proceeds payable in respect of the amount bid by the defaulting Buyer;
(viii) to set off against any amounts which NOAG may owe the Buyer in any other transactions, the outstanding amount remaining unpaid by the Buyer;
(ix) where several amounts are owed by the Buyer to NOAG, in respect of different transactions, to apply any amount paid to discharge any amount owed in respect of any particular transaction, whether or not the Buyer so directs;
(x) to reject at any future Auction any Bids made by or on behalf of the Buyer or to obtain a deposit from the Buyer before accepting any Bids;
(xi) to exercise all the rights and remedies of a person holding security and/or privilege over any property in our possession owned by the Buyer, whether by way of pledge, security interest or in any other way, to the fullest extent permitted under Louisiana law (including without limitation under La. Civil Code art. 3247, La. R.S. 10:7-209 and 10:7-210 and other applicable law), or (xii) to take such other action as NOAG deems necessary or appropriate. In connection with the item (xi) above, the Buyer will be deemed to have granted such security to NOAG and NOAG may retain the affected Lot and any property of the Buyer as collateral security for such Buyer’s obligations to NOAG and to the Seller
If we resell the property under Section 4(g)(vi) above, the Buyer shall be liable for payment of any deficiency between the total amount originally due to us and the price obtained upon resale as well as for all costs, expenses, damages, legal fees and commissions and premiums of whatever kind associated with both sales or otherwise arising from the default. If we pay any amount to the Seller under paragraph (vii) above, the Buyer acknowledges that NOAG shall have all of the rights of the Seller, however arising, to pursue the Buyer for such amount.
(h). Shipping and packing. All shipping, packing, and transportation of Lots from NOAG’s facilities is the responsibility of Buyer. NOAG may, as a courtesy, assist Buyer with necessary arrangements, but by doing so, NOAG assumes no responsibility or liability for shipping, packing, moving, or transportation, including without limitation damage to Lots, damage to Buyer’s vehicle, or any personal injury of any persons involved.
(i). Earlier payment may be required. For any specific Lot, and notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4(b) above, NOAG may require, in its sole discretion, that the Hammer Price for the Lot be paid immediately upon the striking of the Auctioneer’s hammer and announcement of the Winning Bid, with the balance of the Purchase Price being due by the close of the Auction.
The copyright in all images, illustrations and written material produced by or for NOAG relating to a Lot including without limitation the contents of the Catalogue, is and shall remain at all times the property of NOAG and shall not be used by the Buyer or Bidder, nor by anyone else, without our prior written consent. NOAG and the Seller make no representation or warranty that the Buyer of a Lot will acquire any copyright or other reproduction rights in it.
If any part of these Conditions of Sale is found by any court to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that part shall be discounted and the rest of the conditions shall continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.
In connection with the operation of our auction business, NOAG may need to seek personal information from Bidders or obtain information about Bidders from third parties (e.g., credit checks from banks). Such information will be processed and kept by us in confidence. Some of Bidders’ personal data may also need to be shared with third party service providers (e.g., shipping or storage companies) for Bidders’ benefit. By participating in an Auction, you agree to all previously stated disclosure.
The rights and obligations of the parties with respect to these Conditions of Sale, the conduct of the Auction and any matters connected with any of the foregoing shall be governed and interpreted under the laws of the State of Louisiana. By bidding at the Auction and/or through execution of the attached registration form, the Bidder consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Louisiana and the Federal courts of the United States of America located in the Eastern District of Louisiana.
